Street demonstration as a narrative. Ethnography of public participation
Street demonstration as a narrative. Ethnography of public participation

Summary/Abstract: The author briefly discusses performative aspects of demonstration which, in his opinion, is a kind of narration, co-created by the demonstrators as their story about themselves. By providing the example of the March of Independence – a mass demonstration in Warsaw, organised annually on the 11th of November by the Polish nationalists, the author tries to answer the questions: what, to whom and how the street demonstration tells its narrative' and what kind of community the demonstration creates.
